Oct 23, 2006 Picked this one up at the local grocery store. I had only seen this one a few times in the past, but over the last few months it has become much more available. Poured a very dark reddish color. Aroma is soft caramel and some citrus. Flavor is mellow but crisp, with some fruit. A nice toasy flavor comes in at the end. Hops are present but not overwhelming. A good beer!

Oct 16, 2006 Pours dark mahogany with a fluffy beige head. Aroma is very malty with some caramel, cream, and grapes. The mouthfeel and taste are silky smooth. A lot like an ESB in flavor, but without the astringent bitterness. There was some fruitiness, but more malt and sourdough-like bite. I really liked this one.

Oct 9, 2006 Dark clear brown with a tightly packed brown head. Excellent retention and lacing. Aroma of cherry, plum, also some yeast, crystal malt, and a funky metallic hop. Body is not as full as expected but gives some caramel, herbal hops and a smooth bitterness. Finish is sweet and sightly cloying.

Oct 2, 2006 500 ml bottle. Dark brown, almost black, with a beautiful red hue. Throws a tall thick off-white head. Rich raisiny aroma with a clear red berry background aroma. Distant hop characters. Rounded and soft mouthfeel. Soft roasted malt flavour with a fruity edge. Many of the same red berries can also be found in the flavour. Aftertaste is mellow, but with a crisp floral hop bitterness. Very nice.

Sep 26, 2006 Really interesting aroma! Slightly smokey malts and some fruit too. Sipping it is great. Lots of malt and some yeast too. Alcohol on the back of the tongue and some roastiness there too. Color is dark brown with a bit of a tan head that just lingers.
